Strange, isn’t it: We have more, much more to do than before Corona. We realized all books planned, even 3 additional titles.

I am pleased that Joachim Durrang continues his poetic work in my publishing program. Ralf-Rainer Rygulla notes about the poems in the volume »Die steinernen Männer«: Joachim Durrang's poetic space is the moment, the snapshot out of the corner of the eye that takes hold and involuntarily blossoms into an erotic obsession. They are snapshots of presence with dreamed of participation. – To the extent that the vast moments feed longing with painful regularity, the distance between desire and the desired solidifies – and here becomes a poem with its head held high and unafraid.
